The 23rd day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland took us to a place we hadn't been in many years – Timbuktu in Elkridge en route to see Duran Duran at Merriweather Post Pavilion.

The 22nd day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland found us rocking toward The Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia but en route we got thirsty at Hysteria in Columbia and made a road stop at Casey's Crab in Laurel where the owner insisted we go with the Crabmeat Cheesesteak. We're glad we did!

Plus, the Secretary of Kindness Grace Foxwell Murdock, one of our favorite guests.
The fourteenth day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland featured an eastside "stay at home" tour for Nestor, who grew up in Dundalk and frequented Highlandtown and Essex all of his childhood. Loved taking the kids to Monument in the city and Schultz's Crab House down toward Hawthorne. We'll be back. Often!
